It's obvious to me you didn't get enough sleep last night Chris.

You left the comp today with both rigs actually still driveable.....

You must have been tired.

Throttle finger is the first one to go they say.....lol

The wife told me my bully parts showed up today but im in Allentown working and wont be able to install them till the weekend. But I'd like to thank Eric of Dluxfab for the best service I've had yet ordering rc parts he answered several questions I had about this mod and I ordered the parts on Friday got them Tuesday and didn't pay an arm and a leg for shipping either. Cant wait to get home and start working.

Went to Palmerton today with Kevin to gwt some practice in setup 3 courses one we ran at the last comp and he set one up and I setup the other and I must say the one's we set up seemed to be harder.




Couple of poser shoots



Hope you enjoy the pictures it's the last time you will see xr steering on this rig.
Bye bye XR hello Bully!

We both happened to be working in Allentown this week. Not far from there. Shot out for a couple hours after work.

Courses we set were absolutely brutal. Be careful what you wish for!

Chris total score ....42

Kevin total score...68

Horrible.....both our "visions" were a bit blurry....lol

Actually had another course set that we simply abandoned after we both pointed out by gate 4.

Palmerton was only 40ish minutes away from where we are working.

As for building courses I'm down like 4 flat tires but beware thats what you might end up with 4 flat tires and a broken rig!

Flat tires and broken rigs!! Bring it! Lol...

Ur building of courses will be followed up by a vet to be measured and chalked, even moved around a bit, to be more use able as a comp course. Its how I started.. That way it will open up ur eyes to what is expected and makable..

Next comp, bring ur balls and build.. :eek:

I just got home to my new bully parts from Dlux and my scx10 shocks from Crawllife cant wait to get my AX60B axle on the bench.


I must say these knuckles are a lot more than I expected and they are so light it feels like holding air.
